Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a lovely location, just a stone's throw from the beach and with a pleasant walk to Sanremo center. The rooms offer large, quality beds, but there are ongoing renovations in the main building. The service is friendly and helpful, especially the gentleman from the restaurant who is always attentive to guests' needs. The dining experience features freshly prepared products, although it's on the basic side. Overall, a great spot with some room for improvement in certain areas.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was comfortable with good quality large beds, very clean, nice, and simple. The service was welcoming and gave me all the information I needed to have a late dinner close by after a full day of driving; the gentlemen from the restaurant were especially polite and professional, always 'spot on' for any demands. The location is magnificent, a stone's throw from the beach with a beautiful view, and just a short and pleasant walk to reach the center of Sanremo. The dining was supervised by the attentive, friendly, and efficient Maitre D, but the options seemed a bit repetitive. Overall, a great experience at this hotel.
The hotel is beautifully located, just a stone's throw from the beach with a lovely view and a short walk to the center of Sanremo. The rooms, while spacious with tall windows and wide beds, needed better cleanliness. The service provided by the reception staff was welcoming and informative, ensuring a pleasant stay. The dining experience was satisfactory, with the attentive Maitre D enhancing the service. The location offers good access to the beach and nearby attractions, but being in the attic away from the main building may not suit everyone.
The hotel is located in a quaint area near the beach, offering peaceful surroundings. The rooms in the annex were wonderful but a bit dated, and the bathroom could use some modernization. The service was exceptional, especially from the restaurant staff who were attentive and professional. The location was nice, with good parking options, though the attic room was a bit of a letdown. The dining experience was basic and lacked variety, while the facilities were adequate. Overall, a decent stay with some minor areas for improvement.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, but they could benefit from some modernization, especially in the bathroom. The large windows and high ceilings added a nice touch. The service was exceptional, with the staff being welcoming and providing helpful information. The location was awesome, offering convenience and serenity. The dining options were extensive, a plus for Italian standards, and the facilities met my expectations.
